The following information pertained to Azur Co. for the year: Purchases 102,800 Purchase discounts 10,280 Freight-in 15,420 Freight-out 5,140 Beginning inventory 30,840 Ending inventory 20,560 What amount should Azur report as cost of goods sold for the year?a. $118,220.b. $102,800.c. $123,360.d. $128,500.

Answers

Answer:

a. $118,220

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of good sold is shown below:

As we know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Net purchases + Freight in - Ending Inventory

where,

Net purchase is

=  Purchases - Purchase returns and allowances - Purchase discounts

= $102,800 - $10,280

= $95,520

And, the other items values would remain the same

so, the cost of goods sold is

= $30,840 + $92,520 + $15,420 - $20,560

= $118,220

hence, the cosr of good sold is $118,220

Suppose that United States produces 10,000,000 barrels of oil and 1,000 bushels of wheat each week. Suppose that Pakistan produces 9753 barrels of oil and 9753 bushels of wheat each week. 1. In autarky, what is the largest amount of wheat United States can consume every week? Number bushels 2. What does the term autarky refer to? a) The process of negotiating terms of trade between two countries. b) A major argument against globalization. c) countries Government policies meant to reduce international trade. d) A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other

Answers

Answer:

1. 1,000 bushels of wheat

2.  d) A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other

Explanation:

1 & 2. Autarky refers to a situation where a country does not engage in trade with other countries but rather relies on its own production capacities to feed the consumption in the country.

Autarkies in the current world are not a thing because countries trade with each other. Even North Korea trades with Russia, China and others.

In an Autarky situation therefore, the United States would only be able to consume the wheat that it produces itself which according to the question is 1,000 bushels of wheat.

Answer: 1. 1000 bushels of wheat.

2. A situation where one country does not engage in trade with other.

Explanation:

Autarky simply refers to an economy that's self sufficient and doesn't depend on other economies and doesn't trade with them.

1. The largest amount of wheat that the United States can consume every week will be 1000 bushels of wheat. This is because in autarky, nations won't engage in trading so whatever quantity of whameat that's produced will be consumed.

2. Autarky situation where one country does not engage in trade with other. Therefore, the correct option is D.

A company purchased a computer system at a cost of $27,000. The estimated useful life is 6 years, and the estimated residual value is $8,000. Assuming the company uses the double-declining-balance method, what is the depreciation expense for the second year? (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.) a) $8,250 b) $6.000 c) $9,000. d) $7.500

Answers

Answer:

$6,000

Explanation:

The calculation of depreciation expense for the second year 5s sh6wn below:-

Depreciation rate as per straight line method=100% ÷ 6

= 16.67% per year

Depreciation as per double decline balance = 2 × Depreciation rate as per straight line method × Beginning value of each period

Year    Beginning value    Depreciation         Ending value

1            $27,000                   $9,000                    $18,000

                           (2 × 16.67% × $27,000)   ($27,000 - $9,000)

2           $18,000                    $6,000

Answers

Answer:

a. if the partnership agreement is silent as to notice required prior to termination, 90 days' written notice is required before the limited partner may withdraw.

Explanation:

Limited partners: The term "limited partner" is described as a "part-owner" of a specific company or organization whose liability associated with the company's debts can't exceed the amount that a person invested in that company. Limited partners are also referred to as "silent partners".

A "limited partner" can withdraw himself or herself from the company or firm any time he or she wants after a six months notice to the other partners, and the person who is withdrawing is being entitled to any specific distribution based on the agreement or, if none, associated with the "fair value" of the interest on the basis of the right to share in "distributions".

(i)
forgone investment opportunities
(ii)
wages of workers
(iii)
raw materials costs
Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

(i) forgone investment opportunities

Explanation:

Implicit costs are the same as the opportunity costs of using a company's resources. There are the foregone benefits of not investing in project B but opting for project A.  Implicit costs are associated with the resources that a business already owns.

Implicit costs are used to calculate the economic value of a project.  They help managers assess how best to use the available resources. Wages of workers and raw materials costs represent explicit costs, which are direct materials of a project.

Answers

Answer:

A) non-equity strategic alliance

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed about, Runnerz Inc., which is a leading manufacturing and retail company that designs and develops footwear and apparel,has signed a contract with a particular courier service for managing the delivery process.The courier service is required to deliver goods from the factory to the warehouse,to customers,and also to collect customer payments for the goods. In this case we can regard this as a typical example of a non-equity strategic alliance.

Non-equity strategic alliance can be explained as when there is contractual relationship is signed by two independent companies to gather their resources as well as their capabilities even though there is no separate entity or sharing equity. Most of the business alliances are fond of this type of agreement.

Vaughan Company started the year off with an Accounts Receivable balance of $50,000. During the year credit sales were $949,000. Accounts Receivable at the end of year totaled $80,000. What is the average number of days it takes Vaughan Company to collect a receivable? (Do not round your answers in any part of this problem)

Answers

Answer:

25 days

Explanation:

To calculate the average number of days, we'll make use of the formula below;

= [(Average receivable / Net credit sales)] × 365

Average receivables = $50,000 + $80,000 / 2 = $65,000

Net credit sales = $949,000

Therefore,

Average collection period

= ($65,000 / $949,000) × 365

= 25 days

It will take Vaughan company 25 days to collect a receivable.

A private not-for-profit entity is working to create a cure for a disease. The charity starts the year with one asset, cash of $700,000. Net assets without donor restrictions are $400,000. Net assets with donor restrictions are $300,000. Of the restricted net assets, $160,000 is to be held and used to buy equipment, $40,000 is to be used for salaries, and the remaining $100,000 must be held permanently. The permanently held amount must be invested with 70 percent of any subsequent income used to cover advertising for fundraising purposes. The rest of the income is unrestricted.
During the current year, this health care entity has the following transactions:
1. Receives unrestricted cash gifts of $210,000.
2. Pays salaries of $80,000, with $20,000 of that amount coming from purpose-restricted donated funds. Of the total salaries, 40 percent is for administrative personnel. The remainder is divided evenly among individuals working on research to cure the disease and individuals employed for fundraising purposes.
3. Buys equipment for $300,000 by signing a long-term note for $250,000 and using restricted funds for the remainder. Of this equipment, 80 percent is used in research. The remainder is split evenly between administrative activities and fundraising. The donor of the restricted funds made no stipulation about the reporting of the equipment purchase.
4. Collects membership dues of $30,000 in cash. Members receive a reasonable amount of value in exchange for these dues including a monthly newsletter that describes research activities. By the end of the year, 112/112 of this money had been earned.
5. Receives $10,000 in cash from a donor. The money must be conveyed to a separate charity doing work on a related disease.
6. Receives investment income of $13,000 from the permanently restricted net assets.
Pays $2,000 for advertising. The money comes from the income earned in (f).
Receives an unrestricted pledge of $100,000 that will be collected in three years. The entity expects to collect the entire amount. The pledge has a present value of $78,000. Related interest (considered contribution revenue) of $5,000 is earned prior to the end of the year.
7. Computes depreciation on the equipment bought in (c) as $20,000.
8. Spends $93,000 on research supplies that are used up during the year.
9. Owes salaries of $5,000 at the end of the year. None of this amount will be paid from restricted net assets. Half of the salaries are for individuals doing fundraising, and half for individuals doing research.
10. Receives a donated painting that qualifies as a museum piece being added to the entity’s collection of art work that is being preserved and displayed to the public.

Why is it important to know the cost of inspection in a particular areas of business organization?​

Answers

Explanation:

Every regulated organization understands the need to implement a quality system. In fact, it’s a “shall” clause for all life sciences companies to ensure they are in compliance with industry regulations. The focus of any effective quality system is, and rightly so, all about ensuring patient safety. From there, as the organization matures, its people, processes and technology evolve from a compliance, to a correction, to a prevention mindset, eventually resulting in increased quality brand recognition and shareholder value.

In the real world, companies need to engage quality system processes, such corrective and preventive action (CAPA), as the lifeline to feed improvements through the change management processes into the product lifecycle, from design inputs to manufacturer and supplier outputs.

Defining the cost of quality

As we look at process and product improvements, quantifying the “quality” costs to the organization is defined as the Cost of Quality (COQ). Why quantify the quality data? The COQ categorizes these costs so the organization can see how moving from a quality assurance (control and correction) focus to a focus on prevention helps to reduce the cost of nonconformances.

The American Society of Quality (ASQ) uses the following formula to calculate the COQ:

Cost of Quality (COQ) = Cost or Poor Quality (COPQ) + Cost of Good Quality (COGQ)

The COPQ contains all the costs of nonconformances that are both internal and external to the organization; whereas, the COGQ contains the cost of quality conformance, including any costs associated with both appraisal and prevention.

Some examples would be:

COPQ – Internal Costs (defects occurring and managed within the organization)

Scrap, Rework, Re-inspection

COPQ – External Costs (defects that reach the consumer)

Adverse Event Reporting, Warranty, Corrections and Removals, Product Liability, loss of brand reputation

COGQ – Appraisal Costs (controls put in place by the organization)

Inspection (purchased, manufactured), Testing (acceptance, field), Quality Audits, Calibration

COGQ – Prevention Costs (activities to eliminate defects from ever occurring)

SPC (statistical process control), Quality Planning, Quality Training, investment in quality-related information systems

What is the cost to your organization?

In the life sciences industry, analysts have stated that less than 50 percent of companies really know what the COQ is for their organization. However, ASQ, Crosby, and FDA Case for Quality show that the COQ for an organization can range from 3 – 25% of a company’s revenue. The good news is that there are known strategies that can be put in place to drive down the COQ which will have a direct positive impact on the profitability of your organization, and it’s all within your control.

Strategies for cost improvements

Every company is at a different point in the evolution of its people, processes and technology implementations, and even its understanding of its key metrics/performance indicators or COQ. Management could consider leveraging the following strategies to reduce their company’s COPQ and positively impact its quality and profitability performance.

Improve supplier relationships for both product and process improvements

Collaborate during design process, engage suppliers in the corrective action process (from incoming, manufacturing or customer-reported problems), develop supplier scorecards, audit suppliers based on their product/process risk levels

1. Calculate the NPV of this investment opportunity if your cost of
capital is 8%. Should you make the investment?
2. Calculate the IRR and use it to determine the maximum deviation
allowable in the cost of capital estimate to leave the decision
unchanged.

Answers

Answer:

1. $275 million

Yes

2. 30%

Explanation:

Calculation for the NPV of the investment opportunity

NPV = –100 + 30/0.08

NPV= $275 million

Therefore the NPV will be $275 million

Yes, Based on the above Calculation they should make the investment

2. Calculation for IRR

IRR: 0 = –100 + 30/IRR

Hence,

IRR = 30/100

IRR = 30%

Therefore the IRR will be 30%

The IRR is great only in a situation where the cost of capital does not go beyond 30%.

The NPV of the investment is . The investment should be made because it is profitable.

The IRR is 30%. The maximum deviation allowable in the cost of capital estimate to leave the decision unchanged is 30%.

What is the NPV?

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV = -100 + $30 / 0.08 = $275 million.

The NPV is positive. This means the project is profitable.

What is the IRR?

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested.

IRR = -100 + 30 /1RR

100 = 30 / 1RR

IRR = 30 / 100 = 30%

Yeats Corporation's sales in Year 1 were $396,000 and in Year 2 were $380,000.Using Year 1 as the base year,the percent change for Year 2 compared to the base year is:_________.A) −104%B) 100%C) −4.0D) 96%E) 4.2%

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is C) −4.0%.

Explanation:

Since Year 1 is said to be used as the base year, the percentage change can bee calculated using the following formula:

Percent change = ((Sales in Year 2 - Sales in Year 1) / Sales in Year 1) * 100 ........... (1)

Where;

Sales in Year 1 = $396,000

Sales in Year 2 = $380,000

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Percent change = (($380,000 - $396,000) / $396,000) * 100

Percent change = (−$16,000 / $396,000) * 100

Percent change = −0.0404040404040404 * 100

Percent change = −4.04040404040404%

Approximating to one decimal place, we have:

Percent change = −4.0%

Therefore, the percent change for Year 2 compared to the base year is -4.0% and the correct option is C) −4.0%.

Assume Maxwellâs statutory tax rate for the year is 37%. Maxwellâs effective tax rate is:______________

Answers

Answer: 22.84%

Explanation:

Operating profit before interest and tax = $508,848

Less: net nonoperating expense before tax = $107,301

Earning before tax = $508,848 - $107,301 = $401,547

Provision for income taxes = $91,720

Effective tax rate = Provision for income taxes / Earning before tax × 100

= 91720/401547 × 100

A company purchased a piece of equipment for $162,000 on April 1, 2019. The company determined that it has a 5 year life, and an estimated residual value of $2,000. If the company uses the straight-line method for depreciation, what is the depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2019?

Answers

Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

First, we will calculate depreciation as;

= Cost - Residual value

= $162,000 - $2,000

= $160,000

Depreciation rate = 1/5 × 100 = 20%

Depreciation per year = 20% × $160,000 = $32,000

Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2019[April to December 9 months] would be;

= 9/12 × $32,000

= $24,000

Answer:

a coupon bond that pays a fixed coupon rate and does not mature

Explanation:

A loan is being amortized by means of level monthly payments at an annual effective interest rate of 8%. The amount of principal repaid in the 12th payment is 1,000 and the amount of principal repaid in the t^th payment is 3700.a) 198b) 204c) 210d) 216e) 228

Answers

Answer:

d) 216

Explanation:

We need to equate the value of 12th payment and t^th payment through the below formula.

=> 1000*(1+8%)^[(t-12)/12] =3700

=> (1.08)^[(t-12)/12] =3.7

=> [(t-12)/12] =17

=> t=216

Pearson Motors has a target capital structure of 40% debt and 60% common equity, with no preferred stock. The yield to maturity on the company's outstanding bonds is 8%, and its tax rate is 25%. Pearson's CFO estimates that the company's WACC is 12.20%. What is Pearson's cost of common equity? Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

rE= 0.163333 or 16.3333% rounded off to 16.33%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure which can contain one or more of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common equity. The formula to calculate WACC of a firm with only two components including debt and equity is as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1 - tax rate)  +  wE * rE

Where,

wD and wE represents the weight of debt and common equity respectively.rD and rE represents the cost of debt and common equity respectively.We take after tax cost of debt (1 - tax rate)

To calculate the cost of equity, we can plug in the values of remaining variables as given in the question in the above formula,

0.122= 0.4 * 0.08 * (1 - 0.25)  +  0.6 * rE

0.122 = 0.024 + 0.6 * rE

0.122 - 0.024  =  0.6 * rE

rE = 0.098 / 0.6

rE= 0.163333 or 16.3333% rounded off to 16.33%

A call option has an exercise price of $150.At the option expiration date, the stock price could be either $100 or $200.Which investment would combine to give the same payoff as the stock?
A) Lend PV of $100 and buy two calls.
B) Lend PV of $100 and sell two calls.
C) Borrow $100 and buy two calls.
D) Borrow $100 and sell two calls.

Answers

Answer:

A) Lend PV of $100 and buy two calls.

Explanation:

For the option expiration date, it is mentioned that the stock price could be either $100 or $200 so it would be the final payoff either in $100 or $200

Now the lending of the present value i.e. $100 would be compulsory

So, the two calls values would be

= ($200 - $150) × 2

= 100

Total value be

= $100 + $100

= $200

Therefore the first option is correct

And all the other options are wrong

The amount of risk that will remain in a portfolio depends on the degree to which the stocks are exposed to:______

Answers

Answer:

Common risks.

Explanation:

Portfolio variance can be defined as the measurement of risk or dispersion of returns of a set of securities that makes up a portfolio fluctuate over a period of time.

Simply stated, portfolio variance is typically the total returns of the portfolio over a specific period of time.

In order to calculate the portfolio variance, the standard deviations of each security in the portfolio with their respective correlations security pair in the portfolio would be used. Portfolio variance is the square of standard deviation.

A two-asset portfolio with a standard deviation of zero can be formed when the assets have a correlation coefficient equal to negative one (-1) because this defines the efficiency frontier. In Economical portfolio theory, the efficient frontier is a group of optimal portfolios that offers an investor the highest expected return for a specific risk level or offers the lowest risk for a defined level of expected return.

The amount of risk that will remain in a portfolio depends on the degree to which the stocks are exposed to common risks.

A common risk can be defined as a type of risk that affects the entirety of a business firm or company and as such can't be diversified.

Hence, in order to eliminate some of the risk associated with a portfolio, business owners combine stocks in a portfolio and the amount of risk that will remain or eliminated in a portfolio depends on the degree to which the stocks are exposed to common risks.

A 12-year, 5% coupon bond pays interest annually. The bond has a face value of $1,000. Blank 1. Fill in the blank, read surrounding text. -12.38 % is the percentage change in the price of this bond if the yield to maturity rises to 6% from the current yield to maturity of 4.5%?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "12.38 %".

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Price of face [tex]= \$ \ 1,000[/tex]

Yearly Coupon Rate [tex]= 5 \%[/tex]

Yearly Coupon [tex]= \$ \ 1,000 \times 5 \%[/tex]

                          [tex]= \$ \ 50[/tex]                    

Maturity time [tex]= 12 \ years[/tex]

Bond yield [tex]= 4.5 \%[/tex]

Price [tex]= \$ \ 50 \times PVIFA(4.50 \%, 12) + \$ \ 1,000 \times PVIF(4.50 \%, 12)[/tex]

         [tex]= \$ \ 50 \times \frac{(1-( \frac{1}{1.045})^{12})}{0.045} + \frac{1,000}{1.045^{12}}\\\\= \$ \ 1,045.59[/tex]

Returns shift to [tex]6 \%[/tex]

Price [tex]= \$ 50 \times PVIFA(6 \%, 12) + \$ 1,000 \times PVIF(6 \%, 12)[/tex]

         [tex]= \$ 50 \times \frac{(1-(\frac{1}{1.06})^{12})}{0.06} + \frac{1,000}{1.06^{12}}\\\\= \$ \ 916.16[/tex]

Shift in prices:

[tex]= \frac{(\$ \ 916.16 - \$ \ 1,045.59)}{\$ \ 1,045.59} \\\\ = -12.38 \%[/tex]OR [tex]=12.38 \%[/tex]

What will happen to the market value of a bond if interest rates decrease?

a. The market value will decrease
b. The market value will increase
c. The market value will increase or decrease, depending on the general economic climate
d. The market value should remain level

Answers

Answer:

b. The market value will increase

Explanation:

In the case when the rate of the interest decrease so the market value of the bond would be increased. As the market value of the bond and the rate of interest has an inverse relationship between them. In the case when the rate of interest increased than the market value of the bond decreased and vice versa

Therefore option b is correct
